Findminecraft.com was a screamer webpage registered in 2013, It is a name that is supposed to mislead users into clicking the real website.
When visiting, a flashing image of Jeff the Killer appears along with a loud scream. It is the same .swf file that was used in Anne.jpg. Because of its misleading domain name, this website has misled many people into thinking that the website was about the best-selling game Minecraft.
History
The website was registered in August 2013, and displayed the same content as described above. The .swf file was named "alts.swf", located at scetch.net, a mirror of Anne.jpg.
In 2014, the site later redirected to an .swf file, with the same "screamer.swf" file located on the page /images/enter-at-own-risk/ from Minetime, which was also deleted off the platform. The domain "findminecraft.net" was registered again in 2014, but did not contain any screamers.
In May 2017, the hoster of the website was banned by Cloudflare, followed by a discounting the entire site. The website was later purchased by a cybersquatter on July 7, 2019, and was last updated in May 2021.
A popular YouTuber named DanTDM once opened the website while recording, adding to the site's popularity.[1]
